Community

Initiatives were born out of a need to give contributors a framework to organize their work on specific goals for Drupal core. We've been widely successful with some of them, while major things happened outside of initiatives too. We'll discuss recent progress on key initiatives, look at where the model worked and I will share my thoughts on what may be the future of initiatives.

Learn how to make your great idea into a module on Drupal.org that the community can share and collaborate with you to make it better.

This session is about how open source and Drupal changed my life as an introvert and helped me find my voice, network, and career. I will share my story of how I contribute, mentor, and learn from the global community, and how you can do the same. I will also talk about my future goals and aspirations in the open-source world.

In today’s fast-paced digital environment, time is one of our most precious, if not the most precious, commodities. One would then figure that we would value it and manage it well, right? Well - not really. While most of us understand the importance of time and its limited amount, we somehow fail to put this understanding into practice and waste our time on distractions and procrastination rather than taking the reins and living the life we’ve always dreamt of living. In this session, I’ll discuss about the importance of time management and give you some tips on how to effectively manage your time and get more out of your life.

In this session, I want to highlight several aspects that have made it easier for me to give back to the community, even as a digital marketing manager. In my role, the ways to contribute are often far from obvious, so I'd like to highlight some recent activities I've done to support Drupal maintainers and developers. In doing so, I hope to encourage more non-developers within the community to find their way, and to kick-start potential collaborations for the future.
